Miss Puerto Rico 2015 has been suspended indefinitely for posting a series of anti-Muslim messages on Twitter. Destiny Velez tweeted filmmaker Michael Moore last week after he launched a campaign that encouraged people to make signs saying "We are all Muslim" and post photographs of themselves holding the signs online.

It is becoming increasingly obvious that SJWs are more than a speech police, they are a speech police in service to a societal suicide cult. They want the traditional West dead, by any mean necessary, and all for the sake of short-term virtue-signaling.

Sometimes I think even "suicide cult" attributes too much self-awareness to the mindset. I'm reminded more of addicts, so desperately seeking their next rush they have lost all ability to see their scrabbling in the alleyway dirt for what it really is, or to think at all beyond that next rush.

And the path thru the word "racist" is clear now, Drudge has it up that President Jim Jones II has used the race card against Trump.

My WAG is that Obama's and the minion Ds all start to sound like Jim Jones' last speech.

Trump probably doesn't know it but he is a liberator, he will stumble into this role by an off the cuff statement of basically just freeing people from the oppressive yoke of an establishment and their hateful propaganda.

Cuckservatives can plead with the SJW, I just want my freedom from the SJW thought police.

This might be a dumb question, but does the pageant have any Muslim sponsors? Because as SJW as this is, it would be a lot more justified if the people paying for it were in the category that she was maligning.

I seriously doubt that there were any Muslim sponsors, mind you. But it would be an interesting question.

Shockingly, I see no "My name is (x). I am the "decider" for Miss America, or Miss Puerto Rico "foundations" quotes. Let's look into that, shall we? Just to...you knw... start a "national dialogue" or something. CaptDMO

Some of us have old eyes and need the extra magnification. More to the point, I've been using Chrome or Chromium to read VP for months, and this is the first time I can remember this being a problem ... well, really more of an annoyance, but it doesn't look good. Ditto Pale Moon, and on it the email text box also extends into the copy column. Both with the very latest 64 bit binaries running on Ubuntu Trusty Linux.

Under Castalia House on the left side, one of the books is popping over into the comments section.

Also happening on iPad, and in MacOS in Pale Moon, Safari, Chrome, Epic, Firefox and iCab. The left side margin is narrower than the right side, not enough room for two book covers at this size side by side, which are about 50% wider than anything else in the column. On the right side, the two books are about 1/3 wider than the rest of the column, so extend off the edge of the page.

Michael Moore is (or was, a couple of weeks ago) also pushing an effort to welcome "refugees" into private homes. Including his own apartment. Got something like 2k people to register as hosts.

Which I'm sure for all but the most cluelessly earnest SJWs following-the-leader on this is the usual public grandstanding they have no intention of following through on with private action. But if nothing else, it provides us with a list of neighbors who need shunning.

Don't know how I got signed up as a "MoveOn" member, but received this email yesterday.

Dear MoveOn member,Last week, a Muslim store owner in New York was beaten by a man yelling, "I kill Muslims!" A pig’s head was left outside a Muslim community center in Philadelphia. And in California, a mosque was set on fire while people prayed inside, and a woman threw hot coffee on Muslims praying in a park.1And that’s just a partial list of the hate crimes directed at Muslims—and those mistaken to be Muslim because of the color of their skin—sweeping the country.The only way to stop it is for all of us who reject hate to speak out. Loudly.That's why we’re helping jumpstart a nationwide campaign called "Hate Has No Business Here." We're organizing small-business owners, community centers, libraries, schools, town halls, places of worship, and others to stand up against Islamophobia.

Will you chip in $3 and help stand up against anti-Muslim hate crimes? Yes, I'll chip in.

The wave of Islamophobia since the Paris attacks is terrifying, and the FBI was reporting a disturbing rise in anti-Muslim hate crimes even before Paris.And with Republican presidential candidates whipping up fear, things could get out of control fast.That's why we were so inspired by a couple of small-business owners in Minnesota who launched a nationwide campaign with a simple gesture. They put a sign in their window saying, "Hate has no business here."Now we’re teaming up with them and the Main Street Alliance to get these signs posted in businesses all over America.Your donations will allow us to distribute thousands of posters—and expand the campaign to public spaces across America. We'll collect stories and photos and drive media coverage to push back against the stories of hate and violence.

They should just be honest, and instead of "hate has no business here," go with their true feelings, "dissent has no business here."

Michael Moore is a moslem!!!!!!!!!! now everyone short pork future options now.

I'm reminded more of addicts, so desperately seeking their next rush they have lost all ability to see their scrabbling in the alleyway dirt

I guess I should be glad I never snorted cocaine off a 14yo boys penis, I could have ended up a Senator

"Islam is gay murder culture" ought to get more traction with a group of otherwise unlikely allies in our war against the Left

Nope when I tell most faggots about Ali Mohammad Brown the black moslem serial killer of gays in 3 states(caught 2 weeks after Gentle Mike Brown the Ferguson liquor store robber was killed), the 3 gay jew next door beheaded neighbors of the Boston Marathon moslems on 9-11-2011, or the packed Seattle gay bar torched on new years eve they say, BUT THE SOROS PAID LESBIAN GATEKEEPERS SAID ITS STR8WCGCM THAT HURT GAYS.

Ewww, why would you wish that thing on innocent children? If that thing really holds those views, I seriously doubt that they would ever consider spawning. They are probably for scaling back population numbers by any means possible.

If you believe the polling that was done after Trump's muslim comments the glorious people of color black and Hispanic had turned against the moslems and were outvoting the whipped guilty whites by a very large margin on a immigration ban.

@39 Fellow "They want the traditional West dead, by any mean necessary, and all for the sake of short-term virtue-signaling."

No, we want it dead because it a racist sexist xenophobic system getting in the way of human progress.

Well, there's one vote for slavery and perpetual war.

@OlofNormally I say everyone is entitled to their opinion. I'll make an exception in your case, you racist, misogynist fuck. Why do you hate this brave Latina speaking out against the misogynist and violent patriarchy? Is it wrong for her to speak out against the actual murder and rape cult?

Yeah, it does it on my setup at home. Palemoon on Slackware Linux with a 1280x1024 resolution.It doesn't do it here at work (Palemoon on Windows 10), but here I have a 1920x1080 display. The extra width seems to make the difference.

> Why should she think there would be no consequences for being a bigot and a bitch?

Because there never has been for any of the most prominent racists out there, like Jesse Jackson or Al Sharpton?

I think most people readily understand how the adjectives "many", "most", "some", "few", etc... modify the meaning of the noun (in this case the Muslim population). It's really so easy to understand the distinction, so much so that it's unnecessary to make the distinction every time the subject of Muslim terrorism comes up.

For example 'the USA invaded Europe on DDay". It's really unnecessary to say that not all Americans stormed the beaches at Normandy, only a tiny tiny fraction of the populace did the dirty work.

SJWs hate themselves so much, they want the very civilization that spawned them to die.And they cannot escape the consequences. They will be the first to be stoned to death, thrown off a building, or thrown in prison. This is why I like the holiday season. This is the time of the year where their problematic toxic personalities come home to roost. We should all be merry and have fun, in their faces, so in a roundabout way they get the message that the world is better off without them and they get the idea to check out.

Too bad Miss Puerto Rico apologize. She should have tweeted about her opposition to honor killings and the forcing of women to wear burkas. Why the Miss Universe Peagant discriminate against Muslim women?

"Last week, Moore posted a picture of himself holding a sign reading 'We are all Muslim' in front of Trump Tower in New York City. He was taking aim at Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump, who has called for a ban on all Muslims entering the United States."

Trump should tell Mr. Moore that if he insists on being identified as a Muslim we'll be happy to deport him along with the rest of them.

"Enemies of the State"... straight in your face statism/marxism otherwise known as tyranny ... Rolling Stone asking Kerry if the Koch brothers and Exxon are enemies of the state? I heard about this on they way into work today. Includes perverse "charges" against Exxon.

If it wouldn't mean that a lot of us would have to do a lot of killin' to undo the damage, I would wish them to have to deal with the real fruits of their efforts - burkas, clitorectomies, rape, honor killings, etc.

This is not dissent! She is a strong, independent woman using her public visibility to speak out against a religion that subjugates women. The leftists should be on HER side, as Islam indisputably promotes the patriarchy at the expense of women's rights.

@56. The Other RobotMeanwhile, the media, in some cases, are omitting the race of the black female terrorist who killed at least one in Las Vegas.Lakeisha Holloway, claims it's a model... For what? Tire swings? Bananas?

92. I think BGF burning a Koran, while wearing a nonflammable rainbow feather boa and one of these shirts would make a GR8 "We are all muslims" twitpic.

I guess you know how I got banned from youtube. My rainbow feather boa has strands from paracord threaded thru the core, imagine if I garroted some moslems in self defense and the jury saw that as defense exhibit A , there would be a ban on rainbow feather boas.

I would wear my "Snowden said you are a bad boy shirt" that has horse ridding Putin photoshoped on top of Obama on all 4s. I just had to have it made.The picture from here http://theconservativetreehouse.com/2014/03/23/russias-third-victory-syrias-assad-now-predicted-to-win-the-war-against-jihadist-rebels/

@89So organizations (a foreign one at that!) have no power and you want to restrict this freedom from them?

So there is such a thing as "unrestricted free speech"? If you read the book, any law book that talks about free speech for that matter, you wouldn't have such a notion. No, say, fraud, or child-protection, or copy-right, or inciting crime, or treason, etc.?Not to mention that this only applies to the government; it doesn't protect you from criticism or the social consequences (such as being restricted from respectable platforms to share similar views).

Home schooling and their health and medical practices. Go figure. They're both on the totalitarian hit list for being outside of the Borg Central Nexus.

"Any credit for creating and popularizing tasty breakfast cereal?"

Personally I think White and Kellogg were whack jobs who deserved each other for their roles in giving us Crap-In-A-Box, but I'll defend them from the Borg on the principle that it's defending myself as well.

You're lying. There is tribalism, but it is materially very different than SJWs. There is little lying, little projecting, and the doubling down is unpredictable. Nor is there any Narrative that requires constant maintaining.

You need to move to the Kingdom and do your duty an throw stones at women who's only crime was not being wanted anymore by their husband. Willing to put your hand under the scimitar in defense of the Shahadists? Infidel!

@121: "Not to mention that this only applies to the government; it doesn't protect you from criticism or the social consequences (such as being restricted from respectable platforms to share similar views)."

This is a lie, and leftists should be called on it each time they try to peddle it. The almighty FedGov regulates, provides tax loopholes, and/or funds almost every organization in the country. Any of them that restricts free speech is acting as an extension of the federal government, and is therefore in violation of the 1st Amendment. All of them should be prosecuted accordingly along with their individual members who directly perpetrate the crime.

SJW's are the Inquisitors for the Church of Secular Equality. May they all rot in hell for the evil they do here on earth.

Like members of the politically correct, I observe a feeling of immunity from criticism not because of the strength of arguments, but because of the distinctive characteristics of "who we are." The identity politics of being defined by grievances and claims to victimhood.

Not being united by ideology, but feeling of marginalization which doesn't logical pertain to political views. Rather than agents for stability and tradition, we have something similar to Marx's imagination; revolutionaries aiming their ire at their progressive masters and the institutions they control. We have this postmodern metanarative filled with obscurity, no different than the one about rape-culture or accusing white cops of crimes they didn't commit. Atavistic notions of a pre-multicultural America that is relatively ethnically pure is called for, but whats up with the conspiracy theories to support it? Mexico (yes, Mexico) is laughing and killing the US economically? Undocumented Mexicon immigrants will destroy the U.S. of A economically and rape and/or murder everyone along? The Iranian government has a suicide wish and wants to attempt a bee-line for a nuclear weapon for immediate deployment and use? Every Muslim is out to get you? ISIS is at every corner and the greatest threat to America today? The NRA is responsible for the shootings and high crime rates (oops, that one is for liberals). Just because liberals engaged in it it is ok to jump in too?You can be confident that you can throw in all sort of erroneous fear-mongering statements and expecting people to rush to its defense regardless of the inaccuracies or the lack of supporting evidence if it fits the narrative; nothing gets your blood boiling than the feeling that everyone is out to get you.

One of the descriptions for fascism by Robert O. Paxton is:

"Fascism may be defined as a form of political behavior marked by obsessive preoccupation with community decline, humiliation, or victimhood and by compensatory cults of unity, energy, and purity, in which a mass-based party of committed nationalist militants, working in uneasy but effective collaboration with traditional elites, abandons democratic liberties and pursues with redemptive violence and without ethical or legal restraints goals of internal cleansing and external expansion."

Yes it applies to SJW. Do you observe any common elements at all in the esteemed tribe?

@23"If terrorists "aren't real muslims," why do people who criticize terrorists get accused of being "anti-islamic"?"

Because, to the SJW, nothing matter but the act of leveling the accusation. The content or substance of the accusation, whether it is logical or illogical, real or unreal, none of that matters. The accusation is merely a vehicle for 'virtual signaling' -- it is a ritual behavior, a sacrament of their ersatz religion, not meant to have any relationship with the real world.

If you have seen a husband and wife who have hated each other for years, where every word from the other spouse's lips is a painful reminder of some old wound of prior years and years of bitter dispute, talk to each other, you will see them grope to say whatever wounds and offends.

That is the Left and life. They hate life, they hate us, they hate God, and so they look for whatever will wound and offend.

Claiming to be a Muslim they think will wound and offend. So they say it.

@39"No, we want it dead because it a racist sexist xenophobic system getting in the way of human progress."

When you are being sarcastic or ironic, you have to mark the text, otherwise people will think you are being serious.

Yes, I know, I know, no sane person would mock Christendom, the only civilization in history ever to promote the ideal the equality between races and sexes, for its alleged race-hatred and misogyny, when, of course, all other societies had those vices baked in and unopposed.

No one is so stupid as to believe this, but some people are so dishonest that they pretend to believe it, because their ersatz religion of Leftism demands they utter known falsehoods: they think it shows they are stronger than reality.

@127Not an argument. Also, it is apparent that you are anti free speech as you oppose using free speech on those who use it.

@128Code of ethics, not favoritism. Also, provide evidence for Islam as a main motivator for throwing acid.

@129Love the conspiracy theory, but sorry to break it up to you buddy: every citizen shall be responsible for such abuses of this freedom as shall be defined by law. Do you deny the existence of speech-based crimes?While I am far from a fan of secularism, do you suggest changing it for a constitution based on the bible?

I observe a feeling of immunity from criticism not because of the strength of arguments, but because of the distinctive characteristics of "who we are." The identity politics of being defined by grievances and claims to victimhood.

No, you don't observe anything of the sort. You're right here, criticizing. No one, least of all me, claims any immunity from it. Your feelings are irrelevant. You're imagining something that doesn't exist.

@135...Until the FedGov began expanding exponentially, the traditional culture used to take care of things that involved speech, and in that sense it was truly free. Each individual was supposed to have enough personal responsibility to suffer the slings and arrows of criticism, and either shrug it off or handle it personally in an adult fashion. Only a few legal restrictions applied, including libel and slander, and those had to be proven conclusively before an alleged perpetrator suffered any punishment. (Don't attempt to inject a sweeping generalization about McCarthy, which involved the actions, not speech, of those few who were adherents to an ideology existentially inimical to the US). Now however, millions of words of federal laws and regulations, combined with handing out vast amounts of taxpayer money, means that fedgov has effective control of how institutions operate, including especially those that used to be considered as being under the aegis of the separate states. This unholy mix of purse strings and regulations thereby severely limits the freedom of action and freedom of speech of individuals, regardless of whether their speech is internal or external to the institution itself. Washington is essentially buying up individual freedom with taxpayer money. The money stops if the institution does not meet the regulations. It becomes especially egregious when the DOJ decides to intervene on behalf of its policies. All of this means that no such institution can survive without both taking fed money and adhering to the fed worldview, making them effectively extensions of the federal government. This has nothing to do with conspiracy, and everything to do with a backdoor approach to federal control. The fedgov can pretend that such groups are somehow indendent operators, all the while controlling them and the individual within them to do its bidding. Of course this is expected from devious, lying leftists who now control the federal institutions. The issues involved are entirely about Constitutional legality of the powers of an overreaching federal government. Only an arrogant leftist could claim otherwise by hurling banal ad hominems at his enemies, in a disingenuous attempt to deflect real analysis of the issues.

Lots of praise for their vegetarianism (including a claim that they live 5 to 10 years longer than the American average), followed by adherents saying "We're really very conservative", then a list of high-tech medical stuff they're doing on the Loma Linda campus, followed by segments about the religious services on the campus; both sets of "things Adventists do" juxtaposed as though any right-thinking person should view them as inherently incompatible and therefore a strange combination to find in a single religious group.

I was too squeamish to watch more - I always expect shows like that to turn into a hatchet job sooner or later.
